Nock Skinex SB 496 Automatic Fish Skinning Machine
The premium German-engineered Nock Fish Skinning Skinex SB 496 system represents a major milestone in high-yield seafood processing, designed specifically to deliver low-loss performance on thin-skinned whitefish and delicate pelagic species. If your commercial processing facility, fish packing plant, or distribution center is source-matching an industrial-grade fish skinner, looking to upgrade lines with a new automated skinning machine, or deploying an elite conveyorized automatic fish skinner to boost raw recovery rates, the Skinex SB 496 is an exceptional floor asset. Engineered around NOCK's advanced groove-free "S Technology," this specialized platform is highly recommended for sensitive, thin-skinned species such as tilapia, pangasius (Basa), trout, cod, catfish, squid, and more. It separates the skin layer perfectly in a single continuous pass without scraping or puncturing the fillets, protecting structural meat weight and increasing downstream profits.
???? 3 Adaptable Seafood Skinning Variations
The SB 496 provides flexible processing setups, letting seafood production crews quickly calibrate across three major processing formats depending on market requirements:
- Industrial Deep Skinning: Relies on a sharp blade to smoothly trim away both the outer skin and the dark lateral muscle layer for premium retail-ready packs.
- Low-Loss Thin Skinning (Shallow): Utilizes sharp blade tracking mapped to high-accuracy micro-tolerances to cut away only the epidermis, protecting valuable fillet volume.
- Silver Skinning (Pulling-Off): Configures a specialized blunt blade array to softly pull the skin cleanly off the underlying fillet membrane, delivering a flawless, premium silver finish.
- Groove-Free S-Technology Roller: Marine-grade AISI 316L stainless steel transport roller operates completely without peripheral grooves, relying on a counter-rotating dynamic cleaning roller to maintain steady fillet grip and prevent muscle tearing.
- Steady-Flow Water Cleaning Unit: Built-in water spray manifold constantly flushes slime, blood lines, and fine scales away from the active roller during continuous runtime blocks to preserve optimal traction.
- Adjustable Counterweight Pressure System: The upper pressure head accommodates standard rollers, air-filled balloons, or hard pressure cylinders, balancing downward forces perfectly via adjustable counterweights to match distinct product soft profiles.
- Toolless Conveyor Extraction: High-traction infeed and discharge conveyor systems detach completely from the machine frame within seconds without tools, accelerating daily cleanup tasks.
- 15mm NOCK POWER PLATES®: Housed internal mechanical transmission linkages are bolted directly onto solid 15 mm structural framework plates to ensure permanent precision and ultra-quiet operation.

- Dedicated Waste Skin Conveyor: Integrates a secondary discharge tracking belt under the primary outfeed deck to continuously carry away skins to storage bins instead of letting waste accumulate under the frame.
- Turnaround Fillet Transfer Device: Automated orientation link allowing two separate SB 496 units to be hooked inline to skin both sides of flatfish or fillets concurrently.
- Open-Top Conversion Kit: Outfits the system with a specialized safety foot switch bar and robust stainless steel infeed table for skinning fillets manually on an open-top frame.
* Note: Engineered completely from sanitary food-grade stainless steel with watertight bearings and high-traction lockable castors. The crevice-free framework allows your washdown crew to complete sanitation quickly, maintaining full compliance with strict regulatory health codes.
